xAI's Grok Bot Adds Routines, Handoffs and Approval Gates to Build 24/7 'AI Teams' — and a Viral Workshop Shows Users How

A free one-hour online workshop circulating this week walks users through turning xAI's Grok Bot into a round-the-clock "AI team," chaining routines, agent-to-agent handoffs, approval gates and analytics so that a roster of bots keeps working long after a laptop is closed. The session builds on features xAI introduced when it launched Grok Bot in early beta on August 11, 2026: a product described as always-on AI teammates, each running on its own persistent cloud computer, signing into a user's existing tools, and carrying multi-step jobs through to completion without constant supervision.
